Kidkboom... I feel like the idiot as I don't see where someone else answered this...

As for what you wrote... THANK YOU.. you made the book seem VERY interesting and made me actually want to read it I'm printing out what you wrote and giving it to my daughter. If she has questions, I'll post them in a new thread so that if anyone else wants to join in we have it there.

BTW... younger daughter just finish reading Of Mice and Men (older daughter had to read it last year). This time I did read it and I'm glad I did as the the week after she finished reading it Saturday Night Live did a skit and had a reference in the skit from the book that I would never had understood if I hadn't read it. Otherwise, I felt there was absolutely no use to reading the book... sorry to anyone who liked it.

I can only find the video on Hulu and I know a number of you can't watch that, so here is the transcript of the part I'm talking about


Transcript
RICK PERRY (BILL HADER): I'm not gonna be president, am I?

MITT ROMNEY (JASON SUDEIKIS): No. No, you're not.

PERRY: Can I be your vice president?

ROMNEY: Sure, sure, sure. (Shakes his head and mouths 'no' behind Perry)

PERRY: Where are we goin' after this, Mitt?

ROMNEY: We're going to go to a nice field, where you never have to say another word. There's going to be a cow and a chicken.

PERRY: I like that. Are there rabbits?

ROMNEY: Yeah, yeah rabbits everywhere.

PERRY: Tell me about the rabbits, Mitt.

ROMNEY: You can tend the rabbits.
At this point, Romney pulls out a handgun, to shoot Perry.
